Listening
We offer five different levels for students: Phonics, Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, and Master. Finding the right level for each student ensures that they can learn English comfortably. However, lessons can be customized to meet the needs of each individual student. Parents can communicate which English skills they would like their child to focus on and can express any changes they would like made to their child’s English lessons.

What Kinds of Lessons are Offered?
Private Lessons
We offer private lessons for students who want to learn English with a native speaker independently. This helps teachers learn each student’s strengths and weaknesses in their English speaking ability.
In turn, teachers can adjust lessons to best match the needs of students. This provides a unique opportunity for students to develop their English skills at their own pace.
Group Lessons
We also offer group lessons for students. Group lessons provide students with the chance to learn English with other students of similar ages and language abilities.
This is beneficial, as students can develop the linguistic skills to communicate with their peers in English. These lessons can also help students to become more comfortable with speaking, and expressing themselves in another language.
Students can also to take a combination of both private and group lessons with Shields Tutoring. This ensures that students can get the advantages of both types of lessons. We also offer a discounted rate for students who wish to take both types of lessons.
